Easy way for an overview of the city

Pick up was right outside of the cruise ship terminal, which was very convenient. We had a bit of a wait for the next bus to come, but there was room. I hoped it would be open top, but all the windows were closed. The recording was informative, but it listed the stops by name instead of number. It would help if they had said stop 13, Chinatown.

Okay tour of the city. ...

Okay tour of the city. Bought my Viator tix on line. Found young staff at Canada Place stop/sales booth quite uninformed, perhaps new hires. Had 3 different drivers: only one engaged with the tour adding info, facts. Otherwise just listened to the taped commentary. No headphones. Buses arrived at stops in reasonable time period.
